Application filed December 18, 1905. Serial No. 292,185.

enlargement E of the slot D and thehanger pulled down until the upperend of the slot D rests upon the shank of the stud. The locking-disk Fis now turned on its pivot and brought into the position shown in Fig. 3and is temporarily locked in place by the teat K, which is now in thedepression L. Part of the disk F now extends across and over theenlargement E of the slot D, thus preventing the shank of the slot frompassing down into the enlargement E, and thus preventing withdrawing ofthe stud, as the head of the stud cannot be drawn through the slot D.

As shown in Fig. 3 in dotted lines, the notch can also be cut or made onthe opposite of the pivoted locking-disk F.

Having described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secureby Letters Patent, is

1. In a garment-hanger, the combination with a body-plate having a meansfor attaching a tape at its base and also provided in its upper partwith a slot terminating at its lower end in an enlargement, of alocking-plate pivoted to said body-plate beneath the abovementionedenlargement to turn on said bodyplate parallel therewith, saidlocking-plate being provided in its rim portion with a notch which canregister with the lower part of said enlargement of the slot,substantially as set forth.

2. In a garment-hanger, the combination with a body-plate having a meansfor attaching a tape at its base and also provided in its upper partwith a slot terminating at its lower end in an enlargement, of alocking-plate pivoted to said body-plate beneath the abovementionedenlargement to turn on said bodyplate parallel therewith, saidlocking-plate being provided with a notch in its rim portion and with aprojecting handle portion and with a projection on its inner face, thebodyplate having a depression into which said projection of thelocking-plate can, snap, substantially as set forth.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in thepresence of two subscribing witnesses.

Be it known that I, MAx RUBIN, a citizen of the United States, residingat New York city, borough of the Bronx, county and State of New York,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment-Hangers, ofwhich the following is a specification.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improvedgarment-hanger of the kind that are used, for example, for suspendinggarters or hose-supporters from the stud of a corset or a like stud orbutton on a belt, &c., and which hanger is simple in construction,strong and durable, can be readily and rapidly applied or removed andcannot become detached accidentally.

In the accompanying drawin s, in which like letters of referenceindicate Iike parts in all the figures, Figure 1 is a face view of thebody-plate of my improved hanger. Figs. 2 and 3 are face views of myimproved hanger, showing the same opened and closed, respectively.

The body-plate A of the hanger is flat and tapered toward its upper endand is provided at its lower end with a cross-piece B, in which alongitudinal slot O is cut for receiving the upper end of thesupporting-tape of the garter or hose-supporter or the like. A slot D iscut in the upper end part of the plate A and is preferably made slightlyflaring downward and terminates at its lower end in an enlargement E ofsufficient size to permit of passing the head of a corset stud or buttonthrough it. A flat diskF is centrally pivoted by apivotG to the face ofthe plate A, located beneath the lower end of the slot D.

The disk F is of such diameter that its circumference extends across thelower portion of the slot D. This disk F is provided in its rim with asubstantially semicircular notch H, which is of substantially the sameshape and size as the lowest half of the enlargement E of the slot D andcan register with said lower half of the said enlargement, as shown inFig. 2.

The disk F has a lateral handle extension J and part of said disk ispunched inward into a depression L, pressed in the face of the plateVIAX RUBIN. A. When the hanger is open, the parts are Witnesses:

in the position shown in Fig. 2. The head of OSCAR F. GUNZ,
